Totally interested in a new Mac mini for my studio. But “wide variety of ports”, 5 usb c isn’t really much variety… I sadly still have so many things that use usb a, so all my hubs will have to stick around 🤔🤷

Anyone else attending #apidays the next couple of days? And more crucially, are there any side social events, dinners, etc, I can invite myself to? 😁 I'll be speaking tomorrow about using AI to help polish API docs.

In September I attended Europe's pre-eminent Ruby event @EuRoKu in wonderful Sarajevo and wondered, as it comes up to its 30th birthday, what's it's place in the programming landscape? Somehow this was published in November and I missed it 😅 buff.ly/3BQd86I

Oops, don't post here much anymore, but do I know anyone at #WAICF23 ? Feels odd to be at an event and not know a single person here so far 😅

One of my favourite features in #macOS is focus modes, but they don't go far enough, so I wrote a little something on how to combine them with the Raycast focus feature to get a configurable, full-featured setup for focus. chrischinchilla.com/blog/2025/focu…
